  Hi there, I've just tested this and all of my cart contents including the cart come back in an overflow bag. (I have found one bug where the heavy item slots don't return items, and have passed this over to a dev to look into). Do you have any videos or screenshots of this happening? Where abouts on the map were you when this happened? Could the overflow bag have been flung somewhere nearby? Thanks!

  I rode my buffalo with a "Basic Riding Saddle" to a distant cave to harvest resources and carried the "Buffalo Pack Harness" in the inventory of the empty "Basic Riding Saddle". Arriving at the cave I was attempting to swap the "Basic Riding Saddle" and "Buffalo Pack Harness". The plan was to fill the "Buffalo Pack Harness" and then walk back to camp with all of the resources on the buffalo. HOWEVER, I did not pull the "Buffalo Pack Harness" out of the inventory of the "Basic Riding Saddle" before pulling it off of the buffalo. Pulling the Saddle off caused the "Buffalo Pack Harness" to completely vanish. It would be nice if it could at least drop into a lootable on the ground when a player makes this mistake or even attempt to go directly into the player inventory rather than completely vanish.

  Overflow bad was not where in area and I searched in cave below area to see if it dropped into cave. Buffalo was killed by a Moe. I will lookup mission and map coordinates and update notes.

  Twice on a few days games, my buffalo (and me) got killed by a bear (open world, Olympus) Twice I was able to recover all my personal gear and inventory, But everything the buffaloes carried disappeared (in a cart with a mega mine loot, and in the large saddle with dehumidifier, drills, stone building parts...) It take forever to replace all this. Frankly, at this point, I do not see the point in continuing playing. Great game otherwise. This happened on March 17 and today March 19.

  Elissa, the buffalo with the cart completely full of gear and ores vanished March 17 in the narrow passage along H3. My personal inventory was marked as a grave sign and fully recovered. The second buffalo was with the pack saddle, maybe 12 of the 16 slots used. I happen March 19 in E3 (lower right corner, south of the river in a forest. Again, I later recovered all my inventory and worn clothes marked with a tombstone. I play solo on Olympus open world. I have not done any missions yet. I wonder what happened there and why. (I previously recovered buffalo's cart/saddle contents without trouble. Thank you in advance.

  This issue should be fixed in a weekly update sometime in the next couple of weeks! Thanks for all your comments.

  this time had cart and mount disappear while diving into under water caves on IRONCLAD: Research Mission in lake at grid J7. I left mount with cart floating on water in middle of lake where under water cave entrance is. Went to cave on the right and mined and returned to load cart. Then when I went to second cave on left and mined and returned, no buffalo , no cart, no cargo bag, totally disappeared
